A Great Strike in New York.

A strike of coalhandlers and long
shoremen, which commenced in
New York some DAYS ago, has de-
.veloped into labor movements OF
immense proportions.
1t sprang from two sources, one
being the dissatisfaction of a few
hundred workmen in coal yard
and the other the complaint of Il
few employees of the Oh Domin-
ion steamship line.
For these two causes thousands
Of workmen have laid down their
tools and joined the ranks of the
strikers, and thousands more. it
seems probable, will be induced to
join the movement, until not only
shall the city's coal supply be cut
off and the foreign commerce Of
the port be paralyzed, but the rail-
roads shall also be crippled and ev-
cry trade that depends on union
labor deserted by it's craftsmen.
Tie original cause of the strike
it is said, has since been lost sight
of and thousands OF workmen are
now on strike, not for any per-
sonal grievance of their own, but
for principle. The cost of the strike
is estimated at s5,OO0,00O, a large
proportion Of which has fallen on
the laboring men.

The Railroad Attorneys Bill.

Among the measures now pend.
ing in Congress there is probably
none in which the people take II
keencr interest than the bill pro
llhiling members of Congress from
acting AS attorneys for land grant
corporations. The passage Of this
act, the Importance and mopriety
of which are manifest, would afford
the pcoplea guarantee that public
interests have q greater weight
with the Senate and House OF Rep.
lesental;vcs than those of the
greedy monopolics which are con
rinually knocking at the doors of
Congress, and which are supposed
to exert powerful influence in con-
trolling legislation. The arguments
in favor of the passage Of the bill
are ably presented by Senator
Wilson of Maryland, who was
among The speakers on the subject.
In a clear, dispassionate manner
he depicts the evils threatened by
corporate aggression and urges his
brother Senators, By passing the
bill, to place themselves beyond the
reach of suspicion, while ut tho
Sanm time providing themselves
with all effective barrier against
the nsidiouS approach of corporate
temptation. He shows that Con.
grcss is called upon to deal with
gigantic interests, and that in or
der to measure out equal Justice,
and TO render verdicts that shall
be respected, the members who are
called upon to act as Judges must
first free themselves from the bias
inevitably created by accepting re-
tanners as coHnscls for the corpora
tions Interested. even though the
Congressman may lave no conncc
ton Of this sort with the particular
question at issue. Corporate az
erosion is looming mp as one of tho
great issues OF the future, and Sen
ator Wilson does honor to himself
and his constituents in his manly
and uncquivocal protests against
the continuance Ola practice Which
seems to identify the chief law
making power OF the country, to
some extent at least, with the crea-
lures of some Of the most rapaclous

people, or over to the old world to look at the condition of our robber-rldden fellow wage-workers; for we have enough to take care of at home.
 We wish to say to the enemies of Or ganized Labor in this section who have been doing so much of the sneering act during the past few days, and predicting the total breaking up of the labor move ment, that the labor movement is all right. The real, recognized but silent leaders of that movement have not been deceived in the least, They could have, and can now lay their hands on every knave in the ranks of labor. They would have been unmasked long ago, but it was considered wiser to let time develop them.
 The capitalistic press is in high glee over the folly of man lately employed by organized labor to fight men more wicked than himself. But if those who run and feed that much enslaved and degraded press will only reflect on the large number of so-called respectable men in their own ranks who debauch themselves nightly in the dens of infamy in this city, they will not be so ready to fly off on tangent because B. F. Glid- den has unmaaked himself to those who did not know him. Many workmen in this city who knew him never placed any confidence in him. Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.'
